If you want the textarea disabled on load, why not just set it in the HTML?
E.G. http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_textarea_disabled.asp
<textarea rows="3" cols="25" disabled="disabled">
At W3Schools you will find all the Web-building tutorials you need, from
basic HTML to advanced XML, SQL, ASP, and PHP.
</textarea>
